Game

The sequel to one of the best coop games ever. Left 4 Dead created and defined a subgenre in zombie survival games. Play as four survivors trying to get from A to B. On the way you will not only find zombies but also special units of undead that will give you a true challenge.

Even though the game is getting old, it's still a golden gem that you should try. During 2020 it got a new huge update with a lot of new maps.

Co-op

Easy to learn coop for four players. It lacks some of the modern functions that we now take for granted but it still delivers a really good coop experience.
